Rivers and Streams

MARS provides in-depth analysis and cost-effective designs related to river and stream ecosystem protection and restoration, flood protection, and channel erosion and stability. Streams and rivers are shaped by complex surface runoff and groundwater processes, and our multi-disciplinary staff can offer keen insight into each project.

We have extensive experience in engineering design related to floodway encroachments, dam repair, hydraulic control structures and channel stabilization.

We also specialize in detailed analysis of flood hydraulics, sediment transport, as well as streamflow and temperature. MARS has helped municipalities, industries and other property owners reduce their risks and enhance recreational and ecological quality of river and stream systems.
